    It seems RM is at fault. Why should you be out of pocket? but equally why should seller be out of pocket?

    Is it really worth whinging on here about £2.10?

    This used to happen a few times when I sent items via a Post Office. They affix a white sticky label rather than stamps and frequently would affix it as though it was the most delicate piece of gold leaf rather than giving the label a good press down. When it goes in the bag with other mail it could get stuck to something else and be pulled off.

    If a customer contacted me in such a case I would always refund. A customer has paid a price for the item to be delivered to them and should not incur additional expense. As I had proof of postage and a postage receipt for the amount paid I did try a couple of times to recover it (successfully) but usually just moved on.

    My statement was correct and for some reason you will not admit this.

    how can your statement be correct.'it seems rm is at fault'.you assume that without proof.
    my statement shows its the sellers fault unless the postage was applied @ post office counters.
    thus covering both scenarios

    Custardy, don't reply to Missile, he's obviously a troll trying to start an argument! Ignore him, that starves the troll and he will go somewhere else to fight.;)
